A large amount of credit must also go to coach Greg Jorgenson, who completed his second year at the helm of La Salle ' s aqua- tics program. Unfortunately, Jorgenson only had seven people on varsity water polo last year and as a result he had few re- serves. It takes much stamina to play a complete water polo game and this year ' s several juniors from last year ' s frosh-sopy squad filled out the varsity team nicely. Both Jorgenson and his team spent about two hours each day in work-outs at Sierra Madre pool. Apparently these long hours have begun to pay off. Whether La Salle will become really strong in water polo or not remains to be seen, but if this season ' s improvement is an indi- cation of a trend, our Lancer harriers may soon have to share the fall spotlight with water poloists. ».cA-. • .
